Stop the Liquor Traffic in Adventism
How long will the church tolerate its partnership with the alcohol industries? How long will we allow our institutions to openly advertise intoxicating drinks?

Laudato Si’ in Action: Adventists, Catholics, Evangelicals and non-Christian Religions Unite to Save the Planet

Open Rebuke: Accuser of the Brethren or Watchmen on the Walls?
We are stunned with the unbiblical thinking by many in the church with regards to public controversies. How should one address errors or distortions of truth?

Why Have We Become Spineless Cowards when it Comes to Confronting the LGBT+ Movement?
Why don’t our pastors preach powerful sermons on the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th Commandments? If there was ever a time to do it, it is now.

Feminism, Ecumenism and the LGBT+ Agenda: When Seventh-day Adventists Participate in their own Demise
Why would we align ourselves with anti-biblical movements? One would think that Seventh-day Adventists would resist the social upheaval of the LGBT+ agenda, feminism and ecumenism.

Abortion and Freedom of Conscience
By Timothy Perenich DC The Seventh-day Adventist Church is, at times, a conundrum. Instead of normalizing our practices by the word of God, we attempt to normalize the word of God to our practices. For example, the church has a creationist worldview, yet also has the distinction of being the first medical institution to put ...
We Have Far More to Fear From Within Than From Without
